The simple life

It’s quite easy to slip back into a simple life, woken by the sun rise creeping through the door, sitting on the sunny terrace for breakfast, chilling by the beach, a long and tasty lunch at the beachside taverna, getting a welcome and smile from the owners who recognise you from the previous day and wandering back as the sun goes down. How long could you do this for, I thought I had found my place in rural France but that never lasted.
